If they are after the cheapest price then good luck with that one.

Myself I prefer to upsell the quality of my deep cleaning services I offer rather than sell on price alone. Some conservatory roofs can take no time at all and others can take hours to deep clean properly. I've been caught out too many times thinking a job is going to be easy then found out it was a real pig to do especially the pointy bits due to access issues. Conseratories come in all shapes and sizes and some are very awkward to do so I price alot higher than others would do. After saying that I must be doing something right as I still get plenty of work.

Be carfull using ubik or virosol as can sometimes stain plastic a cream colour which is a pig to get off and is not good for self cleaning glass either. I prefer to use hot water first either tap or pure from the van mount hot water heater. Then if need be use chems/cream cleaners, magic sponges etc for detailing. I also check and clear the downspout, guttering also roof gulleys and box gutters if applicable. Then clean the outside of the gutters etc and would also price up as an extra on a quote if they want the sides deep cleaned aswell which most do on a one-off deep clean.

It is a beginning for me so I do not want to charge much more then the others but That customer knows me for quality so They should not be too tight however it is still very competitive business. They do not want me to do gutters inside only face of them.

 

[Smurf]

So how much are you thinking of charging then?

Will it be a one-off or a regular clean?

 

[rshandyman]

for windows will be a regular clean and I might get fascias and gutters to do around the whole house. I am thinking £70 for the whole conservatory inside and outside except gutter vacuuming. My conservatory is bigger and a bit more complicated then the one on the picture.

If your happy with that price then that's the main thing but may take you alot longer than you think it might.

Let us know how you get on:thumbsup:

no problem.Last week I did all windows and shutters(sides of the window frames) for the same customer and It took twice as long as I had anticipated

I always seem to take an optimistic view as to how long a job will take. I was once asked to clean a massive new church centre, inside and out. Every piece of glass inside....mirrors, glass lift, glass lift shaft, glass staircase, glass everywhere. I also had to do the church next door, inside and out (the windows had not been cleaned for decades). I thought it would take me 3 days and quoted accordingly. It took 5!. Thankfully, the vicar, a really nice chap, realised that I had badly under quoted and gave me an extra payment out of his own pocket. It was a great gesture and made me feel a bit better about it all.

I always used to do that. Thinking yeah that won't take long but always did.
